We're Going to See the Mouse!

Sue & I are heading to Florida the end of April and the beginning of May of 2008. It's been a while since we've been to Florida so we're pretty excited about it. In fact, I think the last time we visited was BB - "Before Boxing!"

So, in preparation of our visit, I posted on the Atlas Quest Florida board about our trip plans and asked if anyone wanted to get together for a casual meal to meet and exchange. One thing let to another and before we knew it, there was a mini event scheduled!

Thanks to 3H for spearheading the effort and Kilroy for copying and pasting our AQ post to the Central Florida talk list. Sue & I are looking forward to meeting all of the central Floridians that turn out at the mini meet.

That leads us to another thought. Someone mentioned pinecones and it got me to thinking about the Pepe-cones that some of our good friends made for us back a while ago. We've kept them in a safe place in our home; never wanting to plant them for fear that they might go missing. At the same time, they are great carvings and should be shared.

So, beginning with the Florida mini meet and every gathering we attend thereafter, you just have to tell us what Don (of Don & Gwen) called these little pinecone gifts and you get to stamp into the entire collection (minus the stamp carved by daelphinius since it's our VT house box!) If you whisper that word to us at a gathering, we'll turn over the Pepe-cones to you. There will also be a beautiful home-made logbook that Brian of TeamGreenDragon made for us that you can stamp your sig stamp. We've decided to call this collection Pepes' Passel of Perfectly Produced Pinecones. Love the alliteration, eh?

It seems that a few of the Florida boxers are planning to make more pinecone stamps for our traveling collection. As you can guess - we never have enough pinecones!

Hint: the solution to this clue is found somewhere on this website. Don's term has since gone on to be used again and again for stamps that are unsolicited. Good luck!
